Troubleshooting
When the product appears to be malfunctioning
When the mouse pointer on the screen does not
move, or moves unstably, when the mouse is moved
It is possible that the reflectivity of the surface on which this product
is being used is not suitable for an optical mouse. Use this product
on a mouse pad that is designed for use with optical mice.
When using this product on a metallic surface such as a steel
desk, radio wave outreach may be shortened. In such cases,
move the receiver unit closer to the mouse until mouse operation
stabilises.
It is possible that the receiver unit is not connected correctly to
the USB port. Disconnect the receiver unit from the USB port and
reconnect it.
The receiver unit and the mouse body are too far apart or there is a
possibility that the receiver unit is facing in a direction from which it
cannot receive radio signals. Adjust the position of the receiver unit.
Approximately
10m
Receiverunit
The operable range of this
product is the area within a
circle with a radius of 10 m from
the receiver unit. Depending
on the usage environment, the
mouse may not operate even
when it is within approximately
10 m of the receiver unit. In
such cases, move the mouse
closer to the receiver unit until
operation stabilises.
Interference may occur if multiple units of this product are used
together or if this product is used with other wireless devices.
In this case, change the channel of other wireless devices.
(Multiple units of this product have an automatic channel avoidance
function.)
Operation becomes unstable when battery power is low. See
“Installing/Replacing the Battery” on the reverse of this sheet, and
replace the batteries as soon as possible.
•The alkaline batteries supplied with this product are for checking
product operation. These batteries may discharge and drain

as a USB human interface device. If it is detected as an unknown
device, see “Removing an unknown device,” and after removing
the device from Device Manager, repeat “Step 2 - Installing the
Receiver Unit” on the front of this sheet.
If you have installed drivers and settings utilities produced by the
original manufacturer for a previous mouse, uninstall them first.
This product may not operate correctly if a driver made by another
company is installed. See the instruction manual that was supplied
with your previous mouse for uninstall instructions.
It is possible that the driver is conflicting with another driver such
as that for a laptop touch pad. To use this product correctly, you
must delete the touch pad driver. However, if you delete this driver,
you may not be able to use the touch pad or touch pad functions.
Contact the PC manufacturer for more details.
